Embraced by the transcendent beauty of the Yarra River’s environs, this secluded acre-and-a-half hideaway has it all, delivering luxury, lifestyle, and privacy alongside suburban convenience. Architecturally designed by Chris Seidler as his own home, the residence connects seamlessly with its surrounds, capturing lush scenery, soothing birdsongs, and abundant sunlight in every room.

A show-stopping masterpiece of design, the interior creates volume through a playful array of angled ceiling lines, allowing towering expanses of Shugg window glazing to portray the picturesque setting it sits within. A premium range of finishes echoes nature, combining travertine and French oak flooring with marble, granite and stone surfaces.

A soaring 6-metre ceiling sets the tone for three substantial living zones designed for everyday living and lively entertaining. Adjoining lounge and dining rooms welcome family and friends beside an open fire, with the gentle sounds of a pond and fountain beyond. A casual rumpus room extends the indoor-outdoor lifestyle beneath a shiplap cathedral ceiling with exposed rafters, complete with a wet bar, bathroom and sauna.

At the heart of the home, an expansive open-plan domain invites everyday relaxation and family meals. Designed for keen entertainers, the kitchen is appointed with Asko and Electrolux cooking appliances, double dish-drawers, abundant storage, and generous bench space including a central preparation island.

Extending outwards to the entertainment zone, a sparkling swimming pool and adjoining pool house are central to sundrenched celebrations, complemented by a sheltered alfresco dining patio and a spa. Offering plenty of space to retreat from the sun for games, drinks, and food, the pool house provides a full kitchen with a teriyaki grill and ice maker, plus a swim-up bar, and a sprawling sun-kissed deck.

The rambling north-facing grounds are peppered with amusements for the kids, offering vast lawns for family sport, a full-sized tennis court, and a trampoline. A 15m x 12m shed with powder room is the perfect man-cave for tradies or hobbyists, accessed via a separate driveway.

Accommodating the family in luxury, the home offers a flexible layout of five bedrooms and a home office, supported by four bathrooms. A choice of parental suites are each pampered with an ensuite, while one oversized secondary bedroom can also serve as an additional living area. Completed with a large laundry, and an internally accessed garage, the home is wrapped in innumerable mod-cons including a desalination plant and 90,000 litre water tanks.

Backing onto the endless recreation at Westerfolds Park, this coveted cul-de-sac is primed for lifestyle, minutes from city-bound buses, Lower Plenty shopping, Westfield Doncaster, and leading schools including Viewbank College.
